Planning Types: Campus Planning

As populations grow and housing supply falls behind, campuses across North America must consider housing solutions as an important element of recruiting and retaining academic talent. This is collectively known as academic workforce housing. In this session, we'll outline the five tools of academic workforce housing: assisting with the cost of housing, building housing, buying real estate, lending, and empowering employees to become educated about available options and programs. We will also review several examples of successful academic workforce housing programs, both large and small.

Learning Outcomes:

  1. List the five tools of academic workforce housing.
  2. Discuss how a successful academic workforce housing program can help retain and attract academic talent on your campus.
  3. Educate your campus administrators about the five tools and methods for deploying them to address employee housing shortfalls and needs.
  4. Identify a minimum of five universities with academic workforce housing with the goal of reaching out to colleagues at other campuses to learn more.
